NRC7292 Software Package for Host mode (Linux OS)

Notice

[!CAUTION] The software package released here is specifically designed for the NRC7292 EVK, and the accompanying board data files in https://github.com/newracom/nrc7292_sw_pkg/tree/master/package/evk/binary and https://github.com/newracom/nrc7292_sw_pkg/tree/master/package/evk/sw_pkg/nrc_pkg/sw/firmware are intended solely for this model. If users plan to use this software package with other devices that incorporate the NRC7292 chip, they should utilize the board data file supplied by the device's vendor.

[!IMPORTANT] For support regarding the SAE Hash-to-Element (H2E), please refer to https://github.com/newracom/nrc7292_sw_pkg/blob/master/README-H2E.md

FT232H USB-SPI Conf. (FT232H CSPI Conf)

ft232h_usb_spi = 0 # FTDI FT232H USB-SPI bridge

0 : Unused

                          # 1 : NRC-CSPI_EIRQ Input Polling

RF Conf.

max_txpwr = 24 # Maximum TX Power (in dBm) epa = 0 # (7394 only) External PA : 0(none) or 1(used) bd_name = '' # board data name (bd defines max TX Power per CH/MCS/CC)

specify your bd name here. If not, follow naming rules in strBDName()

##################################################################################

PHY Conf.

guard_int = 'long' # Guard Interval ('long'(LGI) or 'short'(SGI)) ##################################################################################

MAC Conf.

S1G Short Beacon (AP & MESH Only)

If disabled, AP sends only S1G long beacon every BI

Recommend using S1G short beacon for network efficiency (Default: enabled)

short_bcn_enable = 1 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Legacy ACK enable (AP & STA)

If disabled, AP/STA sends only NDP ack frame

Recommend using NDP ack mode (Default: disable)

legacy_ack_enable = 0 # 0 (NDP ack mode) or 1 (legacy ack mode)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beacon Bypass enable (STA only)

If enabled, STA receives beacon frame from other APs even connected

Recommend that STA only receives beacon frame from AP connected while connecting (Default: disable)

beacon_bypass_enable = 0 # 0 (Receive beacon frame from only AP connected while connecting)

1 (Receive beacon frame from all APs even while connecting)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AMPDU (Aggregated MPDU)

Enable AMPDU for full channel utilization and throughput enhancement (Default: auto)

disable(0): AMPDU is deactivated

manual(1): AMPDU is activated and BA(Block ACK) session is made by manual

auto(2): AMPDU is activated and BA(Block ACK) session is made automatically

ampdu_enable = 2 # 0 (disable) 1 (manual) 2 (auto)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1M NDP (Block) ACK

Enable 1M NDP ACK on 2/4MHz BW instead of 2M NDP ACK

Note: if enabled, throughput can be decreased on high MCS

ndp_ack_1m = 0 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NDP Probe Request

For STA, "scan_ssid=1" in wpa_supplicant's conf should be set to use

ndp_preq = 0 # 0 (Legacy Probe Req) 1 (NDP Probe Req)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CQM (Channel Quality Manager) (STA Only)

STA can disconnect according to Channel Quality (Beacon Loss or Poor Signal)

Note: if disabled, STA keeps connection regardless of Channel Quality

cqm_enable = 1 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RELAY (Do NOT use! it will be deprecated)

relay_type = 1 # 0 (wlan0: STA, wlan1: AP) 1 (wlan0: AP, wlan1: STA) relay_nat = 1 # 0 (not use NAT) 1 (use NAT - no need to add routing table)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Power Save (STA Only)

3-types PS: (0)Always on (2)Deep_Sleep(TIM) (3)Deep_Sleep(nonTIM)

TIM Mode : check beacons during PS to receive BU from AP

nonTIM Mode : Not check beacons during PS (just wake up by TX or EXT INT)

power_save = 0 # STA (power save type 0~3) ps_timeout = '3s' # STA (timeout before going to sleep) (min:1000ms) sleep_duration = '3s' # STA (sleep duration only for nonTIM deepsleep) (min:1000ms) listen_interval = 1000 # STA (listen interval in BI unit) (max:65535)

Listen Interval time should be less than bss_max_idle time to avoid association reject

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BSS MAX IDLE PERIOD (aka. keep alive) (AP Only)

STA should follow (i.e STA should send any frame before period),if enabled on AP

Period is in unit of 1000TU(1024ms, 1TU=1024us)

Note: if disabled, AP removes STAs' info only with explicit disconnection like deauth

bss_max_idle_enable = 1 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable) bss_max_idle = 1800 # time interval (e.g. 1800: 1843.2 sec) (1 ~ 65535)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SW encryption/decryption (default HW offload)

sw_enc = 0 # 0 (HW), 1 (SW), 2 (HYBRID: SW GTK HW PTK)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mesh Options (Mesh Only)

Manual Peering & Static IP

peer = 0 # 0 (disable) or Peer MAC Address static_ip = 0 # 0 (disable) or Static IP Address batman = 0 # 0 (disable) or 'bat0' (B.A.T.M.A.N routing protocol)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Self configuration (AP Only)

AP scans the clearest CH and then starts with it

self_config = 0 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable) prefer_bw = 0 # 0: no preferred bandwidth, 1: 1M, 2: 2M, 4: 4M dwell_time = 100 # max dwell is 1000 (ms), min: 10ms, default: 100ms

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Credit num of AC_BE for flow control between host and target (Test only)

credit_ac_be = 40 # number of buffer (min: 40, max: 120)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Filter tx deauth frame for Multi Connection Test (STA Only) (Test only)

discard_deauth = 1 # 1: discard TX deauth frame on STA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use bitmap encoding for NDP (block) ack operation (NRC7292 only)

bitmap_encoding = 1 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

User scrambler reversely (NRC7292 only)

reverse_scrambler = 1 # 0 (disable) or 1 (enable)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use bridge setup in br0 interface

use_bridge_setup = 0 # AP & STA : 0 (not use bridge setup) or n (use bridge setup with eth(n-1))

RELAY : 0 (not use bridge setup) or 1 (use bridge setup with wlan0,wlan1)
